Business Insider has unearthed the business card of Chen Guangbiao, one of the wealthiest men in China and, recently, an aggressive suitor to purchase The New York Times.
The card is a masterpiece of understatement. You should consider Chen’s approach when you make up your next batch of 100% recycled kraft cardstock business cards. Consider putting “New York City’s Bravest Firefighter” or “Canada’s Most Esteemed Biochemical Researcher” on there. “Moral Leader” is a can’t-fail phrase you should work in as well.
Here’s what Chen’s card says:
Most Influential Person of China
Most Prominent Philanthropist of China
China Moral Leader
China Earthquake Rescue Hero
Most Well-known and Beloved Chinese Role Model
China Top Ten Most Honorable Volunteer
Most Charismatic Philanthropist of China
China Low Carbon Emission Environmental Protection Top Advocate
China’s Foremost Environmental Preservation Demolition Expert
Donald Trump’s business card is a model of restraint by comparison:
One of the major facets of Chen Guangbiao’s identity is his charitable efforts. Here’s a picture of the humble businessman Chen doing something charitable:
In the first sentence of their bio on Chen Guangbiao, the China.org.cn Wiki refers to “his high-profile but questionably motivated charity drive.” Hmmm.
Below is a recent Chinese news report about Chen, in which he displays his customary modesty, according to the subtitled translation:
Chinese billionaire Chen Guangbiao often set the world on fire by selling the air, smashing Japanese cars and taking part in a variety of high-profile charity events. On Christmas Eve 2013, Chen Guangbiao carried 16 tons of one-hundred-dollar bills (about 1.4 billion) using a Dongfeng truck to propagate a so-called economic census in a temporary assembled studio. After showing off the money, he disclosed he would negotiate the takeover or equity participation of U.S. Media The NewYork Times in the US.
